Special Giving Tuesday campaign has begun for our medical clinic in Grand Boulage to help them combat COVID-19 which has reached Haiti as well.
A country with only 1 doctor for every 10,000 people, this remote village is really going feel the effects of this health crisis without help and support that Seeds of Hope for Haiti hopes to provide.
I hope you can consider giving, if you are able to.

Dear Friend,

The Haitian Committee of Saint Elizabeth Seton Parish would like to thank your for sponsoring the annual “Hoof It For Haiti” 5K Run/Walk for the past 10 years. We were able to raise over $150,000 to support our twinned parish, Saint Anne’s Parish in Saintard, Haiti because of your generosity.

The Churches of Saint Elizabeth Seton and Saint James have combined to become the Parish of Saint Josephine Bakhita. In addition to combining these two churches, the newly formed Haitian Committee has decided to combine our energies to pursue other ways of fundraising in support of our Haitian brothers and sisters.

Because churches in Haiti often provide the education to its community, Saint Anne’s school has been a success by all measures. With this success has come the growth of the student body of over 300+ students and an increase in course expenses. It’s difficult for the parish to keep up with these demands and has difficulties maintaining teachers salaries, purchasing necessary school supplies, providing enough food for the students and keeping up with repairs. With the energy, we are launching “Gifts for Haiti”. By donating you can support the school and students in obtaining an education, receiving a proper meal and helping the parish with the upkeep of the church and rectory.

The involvement of a generous and caring community is vital to the success of our new campaign, and we ask for your continuing sponsorship and support. We would be pleased to answer any questions you may have. Thank you for your consideration.

Fr. George Couturier
Pastor, Saint Josephine Bakhita Parish
